the born-boy
| Root | ילד (y-l-d) |
| Core Meanings | to bear, beget, bring forth, give birth, generate |
| Semantic Range | boy, child, lad, young male, offspring, one born |
| Conceptual Significance | יֶלֶד emphasizes the state of having been brought forth, highlighting themes of lineage, covenant continuity, vulnerability, and divine promise often attached to children in the biblical narrative. |
| Morphological Notes | Noun, common masculine singular absolute (Ncmsa) with prefixed definite article (הַ). No pronominal suffix; refers to a specific male child. |
| Rendering Rationale | The noun יֶלֶד derives from the root ילד ("to bear, beget"), denoting one who has been brought forth. Rendering it as "the born-boy" preserves the birth-derived sense of the root while reflecting the masculine singular absolute form with the definite article ("the"). |
